DIGITAL DINOSAURS - Extinction: 1979-1982
The Dinosaurs were leading figures in the cassette-swapping world of turn-of-the-decade D.I.Y. Extinction" is selected by the band from most of their nine cassette releases, but they did 45 tracks and appeared on countless collections as well. Heres "Red Fire Engine" and several other utterly splendid/stellar DIY romps, but theres also a bunch of really pretty ballads, and a fair chunk of material where we find the Dinosaurs expertly and effortlessly channelling the spirit of the late, great Bonzo Dog (Doo-Dah) Band. The CD includes song-by-song commentary, photos and pix of their incredibly-handsome DIY cassettes..." - Hyped 2 Death. They were also included on the Angst In My Pants 7", We Couldnt Agree On A Title Cass and the No Platfrom For Heels Cass with Instant Automatons, Colin Potter, Philip Johnson, The 012 and other UK DIY notables..
